Hold up WhoDat. You sit here and \"raz\" ME in not one, but 3 or 4 threads when others, including JKool, LKelley, and GoldenTomb, and more who I can\'t recall have said the EXACT same things as I am and you wanna warn me about getting close to a line? Pot..............kettle. And I have ignored most of your razzing, but then you start an entire thread to do it and you warn me? Wow dude. That\'s low. So when WhoDat\'s argument is lacking, he pulls out his moderator card, when he is going out of his way to antagonize one member. That\'s pretty low WhoDat. There is no needs for us to speak again since you hold all the cards and can do as you feel. Go into 3 or 4 more threads and create another to continue to \"raz\" me if you must. I see I am nearing a \"line.\"

Dude - I started a thread to joke around with you. I didn\'t suggest that you knew nothing about football. I was messing with you. Sorry you took it so personally.

One other thing - me being a moderator has nothing to do with it. I wasn\'t threatening to use my \"power,\" though I see now how you could have taken it that way. Ask Billy about it - he\'s gotten those warnings from me before.

Look man - you\'re clearly ticked. I was just trying to play around with you. Just understand that disagreement doesn\'t mean that one person is an idiot - b/c it sure seems to me that any time someone disagrees with you, that\'s what you suggest.

I only suggest that when I\'m talking to Billy!!! LOL. But then, Billy and I have a history that allows that - he thinks I\'m an agenda-mongerin\' nitwit too! Can you feel the love?

can someone explain the math of how to keep howard and sign the draft picks? i hear \"there are ways\" but i do not see any pointed out.

we are approximately 2mil under the cap now.

the contract previously mentioed for howard was something like 2+mil the first 2 years with a 6-7mil signing bonus the first 2 yrs. the bonus prorated equals 2-3mil added to the cap per year. (all of it accelerated if he is cut or traded). so, 4-5 mil hit to the cap. that means him signing adds 2-3mil in cap room. that is 4-5mil then. now sign all the draft picks, and redo\'s for bentley, mckenzie, horn... how?

does anyone really think the team would give up the use of the franchise tag either? that is one of the strongest weapons f.o.\'s have to combat the cap and free agent problems.

i\'m not one much for getting in these pissin n moanin matches of i said this, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah and was right hahahahaha. you said this, what a dummy. to see thread titles pointed at individual members may be funny to some but i think it only creates dissension (perhaps even more so when by mods). why worry about and spend so much effort on calling out particular members? we are all passionate fans to follow this friggin beleaguered franchise. we all want success. there shouldn\'t be a problem if we have different viewpoints on how we might think that will best be accomplished. i am depressed that they wouldn\'t take #31 for howard. i would have rather dj in the first and khalif barnes in the second. or at least if jammal brown, then grab kevin burnett. a free safety??? what is the plan? but as much as it made my head spin this weekend i hope to be proven wrong. you may think chase lyman was a brilliant pick even if i don\'t (and i predicted they would choose him LOL). who cares? i\'ll say what i think, whether praise for a mac in the 5th or disgust that they make draft picks like the team plays- erratically. don\'t dis me for my opinion though whether it is right or wrong, whether this front office does anything like that or not. if i am right, big sh!t, it\'s only an outlet for extreme fans.

well kelly, until the fo starts cutting and or trading and or reworking contracts i really don\'t think anyone including the fo knows (although i\'m sure they have ideas) it\'s all scenerios right now, would\'nt you say? smitty
